Would you like an “Old School” mode?
Title.
They recreate two maps as they were before everything was changed. One survivor sided map and on killer sided. Crazy stuff such as Omega Blink Nurse, original Mettle of Man, BNP, original Self Care, Instant Moris, and whatever else people considered broken make a comeback.
To make things easier, they’d only allow Nurse, Trapper and Myers to be selected as killers and Blendette (in all her blendy glory) Dwight, David and Meg as survivors with only the Meta Perks as selectable perks. This way they don’t have to do too much work in the coding department and make this mode more feasible.
Do you think players would want to play it? I’d be interested in it just to see how it compares to today’s gameplay. With all the complaints about how it’s boring now, I want to see how fun the game was with how busted everything was.

Not at all.
Not really sure about this way of a "Classic" mode, so to say.
First of all, if there were to be a classic mode, EVERY killer, survivor, perk and so on would need to be present. You just can't lock something away and think it would be fun if everyone were to run the exact same builds. I would go so far as to say that meta builds has to be limited, so that certain perk combos are restricted. Like Dead Hard and Decisive Strike together for example.
I'd say if they were to add this mode, it would have to be on a fair patch, where most early exploits and bugs could not occur, and some of the ridiculous things of the earliest patches would need to be addressed, like insta-blinds, pallet vacuum and 4 second self-care. Other than that, Having the old maps, with tons of pallets, the old movement, old versions of perks and add-ons would actually be fun.
No Thanks. I played those old maps, the balance way worse than today.
